# Vikings Honour

##### Homebrewed Viking era game, based on the core of Powered by the apocalypse, parts of Monster of the week. Resource inspired from FATE.

##### Alot of changes made to the design of moves, weapons and characters to fit the esthetic of a viking game.

##### The game mechanichs is still in testing, we decided to go for this creation, we wanted an easily played game, but more chill in the off time from our other games like D&D.

##### I will post updates to this as I make them, probably lot of adding on and changes to the rules as we playtest this. If you have ideas, criticism or just praise hit me a message on Instagram "Roll. Thedie".

##### I post it all for free to use and expand upon, appreciate if you hastag me or send me stuff you add on to it yourselves.

##### Hope you enjoy.

# Character creation

</div>

## First you choose an archetype, 
##### a theme, for your character, what role you want to play in the viking era.

>In this compendium you have some alternatives you can use, alter, or use as inspiration.
Each Archetype has some special abilities and moves you can choose.
Stats are set up as so that you can be whoever you want to be, choose from three choices and place your numbers in the desired stat slot.
Later when you have leveled up you will be able to take moves from other archetypes (more or less like multiclassing for D&D players).

# Archetypes:
### The berserker (Page 6 )
 Berserker meaning “Bear coat”, a strong willed soldier. Often asossiated with having the strength of a bear. Going into battle in a frenzy.

### The Ranger (Page 7)
 Keeping at a safe distance he is able to watch the back of his Ætt (clan). Protecting and keeping them safe. With a steady hand and a trained eye the ranger picks his targets before they come to close.

### The Seiðr (Page 8)
 Seiðr, sorceress, seiðmenn, Ergi or shaman. An outsider to most communities, yet an important part. Mostly women become shamans. Men who take up theese dark arts are seen as more feminine, Ergi, and were often week thus could not protect themselves. 
 Show the world what a Seiðr is capable of.

### The Big farmer (Page...)
 Head chieftain of farmer village. Strong of mind and keeps hos villagers safe. Attends political meetings, “Ting” with the Jarl and surrounding villages. 
 The Jarl can call to raid, or the Big farmer can put together a raid himself under the acceptance of the Jarl.

### The Rider (Page)
 Animals are more your thing than people. You are an excellent rider and good in a mounted battle. It's as if you understand theese animals. 
 
 ---
 
 Sub option for rider is Boatsman, where you are great at steering ships.

\columnbreak

### The Niding (Page..)
 You have brought shame to your Ætt (clan) and have been named Niding, (a man who has given up honour.) you are bound to be a lower class from now. Often beffriended by the Seiðr as you are both outsiders of the village.
